| rdfs:comment | - Any car that's weighed down with several tons of aftermarket crap/improvements. Done well this can result in a Cool Car, especially if the car becomes really quick, or impossibly durable, or loaded with gadgets that actually do something useful -- hydraulics may be cool on a Low-Rider, but you can't exactly fight crime with them. Unfortunately, where previously the misguided customizer could only fit an 8-Track and an imitation gold steering wheel, the onward march of technology also means an ever increasing amount of pointless electronic window-dressing can be fitted into a car, resulting in a Rice Burner.

Some of the improvements can even be mundane, like Cup Holders. Not to be confused with a Hot Rod, which involves taking stuff out of a car and then stuffing a very big engine in. Itasha is a Sub-Trope about adding otaku related pimping to the car. For the clothing equivalents, see Pimped-Out Dress, Pimped-Out Cape. Examples of Pimped-Out Car include:
